I have just finished reading The Rape Gang Inquiry Report.

It is, without a doubt, the most horrifying document I've ever read in my life.

There is no close second... and it's worse than you could ever imagine.

Here's everything you need to know 🧵

1. The inquiry estimates AT LEAST 250,000 girls.

A QUARTER MILLION.

They are overwhelmingly white girls and they were raped, trafficked & tortured over decades.

The 250k number is the MINIMUM, the FLOOR... there are likely even more than this.

2. The same crime was documented in at least 149 local authority districts... nearly 40% of the country.

This wasn't dozens of isolated local incidents, this was ABSOLUTELY a national pattern the state CHOSE to let grow for decades.

The first recorded case dates to 1955.

I took a deep dive through police departments across North Carolina last night...

What I found is pretty shocking.

On the low end, at least 20% of "WHITE" arrests are Hispanics, on the high-end, in some counties, this number is closer to 70%.

Whatever the "WHITE" crime rate actually is, it's far lower than you could possibly imagine.

In quite a few reports, I found that the "race" of the individual will vary, depending on where you look.

The arrest report will say one thing, the jail report another, and the court system may say something different.

Something that happened quite frequently is that even when someone was arrested by the SAME police department over multiple years...

The race of the individual would suddenly change, sometimes changing every month, with every arrest or every year.

Many had ICE detainers.

🚨#BREAKING: It has been revealed that Democrat Charlotte NC Sheriff, Garry McFadden, who refused to cooperate with ICE/Border Patrol on deportations of illegal immigrants...

...used his OWN police officers to transport political officials to strip clubs and topless bars

It gets worse...

McFadden also apparently threatened to retaliate against the POLICE OFFICERS who were assaulted by the criminal inmates at the detention center...

...then blamed the JAIL DEPUTIES for their OWN ASSAULTS

WHAT?!!!!!!

Oh my gosh...

Apparently, in 2020, an officer named "Crenshaw Hill" was STABBED IN THE NECK by an inmate who used shards of glass from a mirror...

...and McFadden BLAMED THE OFFICER FOR HER OWN STABBING!!!!!

As a former liberal-turned MAGA...

...here's some advice on how to deal with to your liberal in-laws over Thanksgiving.

1) Do the dishes. (Yes, seriously.)

Character is the ultimate persuasion strategy and serving others builds trust faster than a debate ever will.

Serving does 2 powerful things:

a) It starts to crumble the caricature of you.

Every single liberal has been trained to see MAGA as “mean, selfish, hateful.” If you're delightfully helping do the dishes, it's hard to keep that mental stereotype intact.

b) It earns you future permission.

Most people don’t change their mind in one conversation.

They change over time, when you build trust with them.

So, if you want anyone to hear you, don’t start by trying to be right.

Start by being useful, that’s what cracks the wall.

2) Choose the route of MOST empathy

Conservatives often come across as non-empathetic when arguing their points... which is actually the exact opposite of the positions held by nearly everyone in the MAGA movement.

Let's take illegal immigration, as an example.

Your liberal in-laws may say something like, "it's so hard right now, you know... to be an immigrant in this country."

Your response should be to choose to show insane amounts of empathy to the REAL victims of illegal immigration: children trafficked into the country by Joe Biden.

So a response should be informative, and empathetic.

Here's an example: "Yeah, I can't imagine... I heard that they found 70 children in West Texas that were trafficked across the border and were living in the worst conditions. I'm glad at least this administration is finally doing something about it, just so awful what's been going on for years..."

So the response combines a few things:

a) Enormous amounts of empathy for the victims
b) A new piece of information

To effectively communicate with a liberal, you have to showcase that you care.

This was actually done to me by someone I consider a dear friend now after Hurricane Helene.

It works.

3) Lead with shared values

The worst thing that can happen to a liberal is for them to think you are calling them a bad person.

So much of the liberal identity is essentially agreeing with mantras, without much thought, to be perceived as kind and good.

So if you start with policy, they’ll hear it as a moral attack.

Start with the shared values first.

Say things like:
“I hate seeing people hurting.”
“I want families to be able to afford life again.”
“I want kids to be safe.”
“I want a system that’s fair.”

Then pivot to your view as a different ROUTE to the SAME destination:

Agree on the PROBLEM.
Affirm their HEART.
Then offer a different SOLUTION.
